Maggots are flies actually, in their larval worm-like stage that feed on decaying organisms. What do maggots have in common in human, you ask? Here’s what they have in common..
People crave bad news, tell them the stories of misfortunes that happened in your life and they are listening enraptured, expressing words of consolation at regular intervals. They feed on your misery and feel important and think they are doing you a great service by listening to the story, all the while their mind thinking “Of course she deserved to have that happen to her.” .
And these are so called friends I am talking about. Tell them that you are happy, and they are no more interested in you. And send them pictures of your latest vacation to tell them what a great time you had and how happy and relaxed you are and they respond unenthusiastically with “Yeah, the pictures look good”. The same people who empathized on your grief would now empathize with your joy you think? Wrong, the minute you are over your misfortunes, you are not interesting to them anymore.
Now, don’t you think they have something in common with maggots?
